Untouan Temple

A quiet temple with a long history. Make your way there by firmly stepping on the stones on the pathway

A revered temple which has existed for more than 1200 years and is known as the No. 1 temple in the Echigo area. Hidden on each of the stones lining the sando path from the red gate, there is a Chinese character from the Lotus Sutra. As you walk over the stones, it is said that you will accumulate virtue.
